Memorial Day Challenge!

Its time for another challenge! This challenge will be beginning with the first weigh in and goal on Monday, April 13. From there on after, weigh ins will take place Monday. Last weigh in will be Monday, May 25. This will allow a total of 7 weigh ins in all. The link for the spreadsheet is posted below. I'm taking over for @Susan11803. She always hosted the best challenges! Hopefully, I can keep up as well as she did!

A Few Reminders

  • You will know it is updated once I have liked your post.
  • Please post weigh ins here in this post only.
  • We are all here to support each other, so questions posted here will be answered by anyone else willing to help.
  • If you want to adjust your goal weight, just add that in any reply to this post.
  • if you miss a weigh in, no problem! Just report back in the next week.

But if you missed three or more weigh ins, I will assume that you no longer wish to continue the challenge and your name will be removed from spread sheet.

That is a lot of walking but it does look like you are not getting enough food in. You body is probably in starvation mode, so it is holding on to everything. You should try to up your intake focusing on clean proteins and up your fluid intake. I always have beef jerky or protein bars on hand just in case. Each meal you should have a couple oz of a clean protein source and a veggie of some sort. Also snacks try to have a Greek yogurt or your shake (I unlike most love my protein shakes). Hydration has a lot to do with the efforts as well. 64oz seems like a lot but if broken down into several smaller servings it goes by pretty quickly. Since I work outside I drink way more than my 64oz. But, it is not all water. I have crystal light, Arnold Palmers w/ light lemonade and unsweetened tea... but any caffine I consume I drink that many more ounces of liquids to counter the effects of the caffine.

If things still don't happen after a few days of following your post op bible call your nutritionist to see what they think. Good luck to you and hope things ramp up for you.
